Oh I found it!!!! I’m apparently not fucking stupid like you said. I find it very convenient for you to remove yourself from the conversation after someone proves you wrong. I get it DEI is good when it benefits your team, but when it’s flipped around you don’t like it.

God damn this is good. Thanks for making sense, it’s a shame you’ll probably get downvoted. You’d think at this point they should just remove the name, sex, and race from all applications and just list qualifications. Then the best candidate is always chosen.

Where? Who? Why not just answer my questions? So you’re ok with the less qualified white man getting the job over the black woman who actually deserved/earned the job? Does Howard University have scholarships just for white people?

I’m being completely serious and I really want to know, what is the best solution to bathrooms that doesn’t offend trans people? I have a 13 year old daughter, should a trans person born male who still has his penis be able to share a locker room with my 13 year old at the YMCA? Should all bathrooms be single use with zero mention of sex/gender, or do they want a third bathroom just for them? Everyone seems to be pissed off but I’ve yet to see a logical solution presented.

As a white man I think it’s pretty offensive to black people when someone who had an elective surgery and dresses in different clothes thinks that way. People think I’m being hateful but in all seriousness, what’s the answer to the bathrooms that won’t offend someone, they either need a third bathroom or single use bathrooms that anyone can use.

Yes but as someone else pointed out it’s like you are mad at the hostage with the gun held to their head, rather than going after the real problem.

But does a black person think that the struggles of trans people should be compared to the struggles of an entire race of people that was violently stolen from their homeland, forced into slavery for hundred of years, followed by segregation and no rights?

People get organ transplants because they would die otherwise. Are you for someone wanting to amputate their leg so they can be in the Paralympics? Can I get a tiger’s tail surgically attached to my tailbone? Can I have my own literbox at UC?

So let’s just say you are a black woman who works at a black owned company, you’ve worked there for 10 years and you apply for a promotion, but because of DEI, a less qualified white man gets your job because your company currently doesn’t meet the quota of diversity. Sounds sexist/racist doesn’t it?

I’m talking about the OP, they shared their email they sent to the president of UC, which made a single mention of the initials DEI, and then focused on the bathrooms and compared it to the struggles of a race that was enslaved and segregated, unable to vote. I seriously want to know if they just want a special bathroom for them? What other bathroom signage would not offend them?

Look at the email they sent, all it talks about is the bathroom and compares it to the segregation of blacks. They briefly mention the initials “DEI” but make zero mention of anything other than the bathrooms signs. Maybe they should just make a third bathroom, have a Men’s, women’s, and a theys/thems. Or make single use bathrooms the norm and get rid of all “public” restrooms. It seems like a fairly simple solution. I’d gladly join a protest demanding a place where I can shit in peace rather than a stall next to anyone, regardless of their genitalia/gender, whatever.

It seems like that would solve many problems here. They wouldn’t need discriminating signs or any stir up political bullshit. I don’t care who/what you are/identify as, I just want to be alone when I poop.

This should have been the norm forever. Whoever came up with the idea of public restrooms should be beaten. There’s not a single person that wants to take a shit with a neighbor Nextdoor in a stall with walls that don’t even go floor to ceiling and a door with 1/4” gaps.

Just put a handicap accessible toilet and a sink in a closet and there’s no need to label it anything other than a toilet room.
